I think you are down one level too far. At least the 2 users here are
just for calls to bus_find_device. We already have a function for that
with of_find_device_by_node at least for platform devices. Perhaps
rework that to be "struct device *of_find_bus_device_by_node(struct
bus_type *b, struct device_node *np)" and then wrappers for each bus
type. And perhaps make a class variant as well. However, we should
also consider if OF is the right level. Maybe it should be fwnode
functions?
